Ensuring positive experiences for younger players

We want to ensure that our players feel welcome and safe, from the most experienced, seasoned gamers to our newest, younger players. We strive to empower young players and their parents to make informed gameplay choices and work closely with third-party partners and platform holders to accomplish this. This means that parents and guardians can set controls on their devices, which will be followed in our games. For example, if they turn off communication with other players in the platform parental controls, that will also turn off communications with other players in the EA game. 

Many of our games will selectively disable a specific feature based on the parental controls settings. For example, if parents or guardians turn off multiplayer through parental controls, their child won’t be able to access that feature in-game. Other games may switch off all online features completely. 

For additional peace of mind, the EA App on PC and Mac enables parents and guardians to set playtime guidelines for weekdays and weekends and sign up to receive weekly Family Activity Reports that detail their family’s play habits.

All of these tools and technologies work in tandem to better serve our communities. Our commitment to Positive Play and ensuring safe gameplay environments for all is unwavering. That’s why we will continue to scale, refine, and enhance our efforts to enable the best experiences for players to play, create, and watch, in, around, and beyond our video games.
